Verizon's Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Gets Lollipop Rollout Starting Today

[Miklb58]

My Verizon says it is activated. However, it is greyed out on my Note 4. The Advanced Calling is turned on. What am I doing wrong?

I experimented with it yesterday with my son at the other end.
We both have Note 4's on vzw.
He had a 4G signal and I had 3G, and the HD voice wouldn't work, nor would video call.
I went outside to obtain a 4G signal and both became available.

Correct. In order for voice over LTE to work, you have to be on LTE.

Are you on Verizon getting the no need to delete updates before freezing bloatware? That was something new on AT&T, didn't know if it was carrier specific or not.

Negative. When I disabled things, it uninstalled updates.

I was forced to do a data reset (which I hate doing) because I forgot my damn password and my fingerprint wouldn't register.

Other than that, all is well....

Another APP that was installed and I CAN NOT delete is Facebook. WTF is up with that. I don't want it on my phone... irritated

Should I just factory reset and hope I can skip that being installed somehow or am I effed?

If it was installed with the update, a reset won't uninstall & reinstall it.

yeah I know, just frustrated with it.

Looks pretty strong that Root is here...... I'm not a fan of the atmosphere where it's coming from so I'm not a Dev over there but I've heard from a pretty good source that it is/was working on KK and they felt good it would be usable on Lollipop

Yep, I am looking forward to it. Extremely ready to Root.

Are you talking to people who also have Advanced Calling active on their phones? If not, you're not going to hear much of a difference (if any at all).

You also (both) need to be in an area where XLTE is available

I wasn't aware of that. Good to know.

So far I like it. Seems snappy, everything seems to work ok... Been unplugged for 9 hours now, not too much screen time. but I did use it as an iPod for my headphones most of the day as I rode up in the Mtns... Battery is at 82% still, so that is pretty good.

Not too much to complain about really. I do wonder though, is this using ART now? I see that the option to choose between ART and Dalvik is gone now...

Just disable it in the app manager. You will never see it again.

I believe lollipop is ART only.
